Watt Esports Discord Bot

The bot for the Heriot Watt Esports society discord server.

Implementation Details

Command Handler

NOTE - This is only used in the message event of discord.js. If adding functionality to another event, or without the prefix, please look at event handler.

This handles all commands that prefixed with the defined prefix in your config.json file.

To add a new command, follow these steps:

1. Create a new file under the commands directory (Descriptive names are the best!)
2. Add the following in the file and edit accordingly :

   module.exports = {
   name: 'The triggerword of the command',
   description: 'Short description of what the command does',
   guildOnly : true, // Boolean, is not necessary depending on the command
   modOnly: true, // Boolean, defines if only mods can use the command, is not necessary
   usage: 'example usage of the command using <> to show variables',
   execute(message, args) {
       // code goes here
   },

Event Handler

Each discord.js event has been split into it's own file

To add a new event, create a file in the /events/ directory, and this HAS to be named the exact same as as discord.js event, passing on the correct arguments (Docs here)

NOTE The first argument regardless of event will ALWAYS be Client

If the event already exists, you can do into the corresponding file and add the functionality into that file.

Branch Naming Convention

feat/featureName - New features
fix/fixName - Bug fixes
